      Biden and Harris are not it if you want to push Democrats and the country left. They aren't as far right as Trump and his buddies, but the are left of center but pretty classic Democrats. Bernie was the guy to push things left, but the Democrats rejected him. Without a good progressive candidate in place to challenge in the primary, we won't see that push left. This election it's Harris as the best bet for keeping Republicans from doing serious long term damage to this country.

          Keep telling yourself Trump is the answer, we'll go through another national disaster that takes out 2% of the world's population.

            I'm not voting for Trump so I'm not sure what this has to do with anything.

    The US’s currently level of military aid is unsustainable, even for the most wealthy empire in history. Domestic production has been showing signs of not being able to keep up for a while now.

    Palestine gets about $500 percapita in foreign aid, annually. Israel was around $200 last I checked.
